Reviews
The usual issue of language barrier, I can only relate to the vocals as an instrument. Luckily it's a fine instrument and I had no objection to listening, even coming in well over an hour. The music was maybe on the basic side, existing mainly as support for the vocals. But the great variety and consistent quality in sound takes it to a higher level
I really enjoyed this. Some of it wasn't quite my thing, but it was a nice groove!
Rating: 8/10 Best songs: Tudo, Caju, Mayonga, Febre, Pote de ouro
Enjoyed this nice easy listening amazing sounding pop album.
Definitely music
A bit standard singer-songwriter
Caju is pretty chilled but ultimately quite generic, production is heavy on the bass (including the vocals) and it's better for it but ultimately it doesn't really hit the sweet spot for staying interesting, runs too long and of course I don't understand the words. High 2 maybe.
Sinänsä kiva että Brasiliastakin jotain, mutta kokonaisuudessaan aika unohdettava moderni pop-levy.
Only made it through a handful of songs. The singer has a good singing voice and that’s the only nice thing I can write.
The production/execution and character of this LP is grand, just feel it runs way too long for how homogeneous most of the tracks are for this genre. Cut it down to 45 minutes with a mix of the slower ballads/uptempo club numbers and you’d have a winner, but in its current form the album is somewhat exhausting for how little variation it brings to the table.
